  • Empowering Multilingual Learners With Essential Tools

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    I can't explain how much your donation means to my students and me. They can finally have their own headset instead of having to share a nearly broken half class set. They'll also enjoy the huge bag of Jolly Ranchers since they are all so candy driven :-)

    Time and time again I ask for donations for various classroom items and my village always comes through. I love you all so much!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Siegel

    This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community and 19 other donors.
  • Ms. McDevitt's PBIS Store

    Funded Nov 2, 2022

    Thank you thank you thank you! Being able to ask my village for help has made my teaching career so far so special. When I showed my students how many people donated and what would be purchased, they asked why strangers would do that. It was refreshing to be able to tell them that people are innately good and that they have so many people on their side whether they know them or not.

    Your donation is going to provide my students with positive reinforcements for their behavior and engagement. Without you guys, my PBIS store would be filled with dollar store items that my students don't really have an interest in. I'm excited to share your generosity with them, though I am not super excited for all the red finger prints on their papers from the Takis and Flamin' Hot Cheetos from this donation package.”

  • Full Stomachs, Focused Minds!

    Funded Sep 4, 2019

    Once again, I can't thank you enough for your generous donations. The difference you are helping me make will be major in my students' lives. Working in a school like mine will never be easy and having a support system like you all is what keeps me going; they say it takes a village and I am here to confirm that.

    I am eager to receive my goodies and I'm sure my students are, too. I can't wait to show you the looks on their faces when we open our packages!”

  • Healthy Snacks for Healthy Minds

    Funded Oct 15, 2018

    We were so excited when we learned that our snack project was fully funded! Our mornings are long and the provided breakfast was simply not enough to fuel our bodies until lunch time. We eat our mid-morning snack right after resource and right before our 2 hour reading block. I explained how we were able to get these snacks, and they were so shocked that people they've never even met were willing to help us out like that. It has definitely affected the stamina and energy in my students.

    When the boxes arrived from Amazon, my students were thrilled! They helped me open and unpack them and then helped me organize the snack cabinet. All they could talk about for the rest of the week was how cool it was to receive those packages.

    My students and I are so grateful for your generosity. Your donation has helped us tremendously in our day-today routines and academic progress. We will never forget the kindness you showed us by donating to an essential fund.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Siegel

  • Healthy Snacks for Healthy Minds 2.0

    Funded Jan 29, 2019

    Wow!! I am overjoyed that this project has been fully funded. Thank you all for your generous donations to my classroom. Your thoughtful gifts will make a positive impact on my students' lives and in their learning. These snacks are essential to our daily routine. By donating, you are showing my students that so many people care about their education and want them to succeed.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Siegel

Hello! I am the very lucky teacher of 17 loving and bright students at Lakemont Elementary (formerly Robert E. Lee Elementary) in Petersburg, VA. We are very, very busy and love to learn by doing. My students come from diverse backgrounds and have varied learning abilities. Our needs vary from flexible seating, to organizational supplies, to "calm down kits". My personal goal is to make learning fun for them because they have not had that experience at school in the past.
